View 14 RepliesI'm boycotting Intel for their building of a factory on illegally occupied Palestinian land, the village of Iraq al Manshiya.
As such I'm looking for a VPS provider that has AMD servers available in the UK.
i have a site which involves heavy cpu use but its in a small private network with 3 other boxes which are pretty much idle, so im wondering is their a way to use the idle cpu time /ram possibly on my main server via the network ?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have make an argument for going with Intel chips for some new platforms. These will be used in Xen VPS hosting.
Scanning thru the products of newegg for example, it would seem first that AMD boards (Opterons) are cheaper then Intel's 775 boards. Then the Intel boards also require FB-Dimms which is a bit more expensive then Registered ram.
I know alot of hosters here prefer going with Intel. Is there any other reasons then just following the crowd? I do know Intel chips perform better but does that warrant say 300 more dollars of going with an Intel based solution?
What would be some convincing arguments for going with Intel instead of AMD chips?
I have an account at HostMonster.
Server Load: 12.08 (8 cpus) with RED status
Is it too much?
Any hostmonster users?
Many people have some problems with vmware server on some 64bit operation systems.
If your server's ram is more than 6GB, you have to have a 64bit OS but I have tried to install vmware server on a 64bit server, it seems to be crashing my vmware server every 5 min and I cant use it more until I reset this service.
CPU : Intel Xeon Nehalem 3440 2.53Ghz Quad Core w/ HyperThreading (8 virtual cores)
Ram : 4 GB DDR2
Os : CentOS 64bit
I have had an another server and i have solved this problem whit Debian. but on CentOS I usually have problem, and I cant use vmware server.
Have you any idea how i solve this problem on CentOS 64bit?
Which dedicated host is the fastest at providing servers with the newest CPUs?
Intel just announced a 6 Core CPU that is being released within a few months, so which Dedi host do you think will offer this first?
Are there particular version of mysql or apache that are best suited when you want to utilize a multi-core/multi-cpu system? For example, we are currently using apache 1.3 and am not sure if it has the inherent ability to use multiple cpus to its benefit.
Or would the fact that it spawns child processes take advantage as the processes will be spawned on the different CPUs?
Attacking multicore CPUs

"The Register reports that the world of current multi-core central processing units (CPUs) just entered is facing a serious threat. A security researcher at Cambridge disclosed a new class of vulnerabilities that takes advantage of concurrency to bypass security protections such as anti-virus software The attack is based on the assumption that the software that interacts with the kernel can be used without interference. The researcher, Robert Watson, showed that a careful written exploit can attack in the little timeframe when this happens, and literally change the "words" that they are exchanging. Even if some of these dark aspects of concurrency were already known, Watson proved that real attacks can be developed, and showed that developers have to fix their code. Fast..."

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'd like to ask for some help in choosing a webhost. I want to host a website that will be a sales database. It will use a MySQL database and PHP. I will not need large amounts of disc space (I can't estimate exactly but probably less than 10GB) and relatively low amounts of bandwidth. What's important is a high uptime and security and quality bandwidth. I am very sceptical with all the webhosts offering unlimited services since I know they are overselling. Do you know of any quality webhosts suitable with the above characteristics?

Now where I am still stuck is with a webhost. Every time I locate one that sounds good (editor's picks, and such), I read the feedback comments and find tons of complaints. Can someone recommend one please. Under $10; user friendly; accepts Paypal would be very helpful. I went to get Bluehost, as an example, from some reviews I read, and then I read the feedback section. I don't think I understand the terms enough to make a choice on my own,
View 14 Replies View RelatedI friend of mine wanted to know if it's possible to use a webhost (for example hostmonster.com and bluehost.com.) as a backup storage. Is it possible to transfer the files to the webhost with ftp at "Admin Backup/Transfer" with admin level?

Many of us create websites hoping that they get a lot of hits.
How can you ensure that if your web site gets a lot of hits, that it doesn't get knocked over, that it can scale and take many hits? I am not talking about a DoS attack. I am talking about a website that gets very popular and gets a lot of hits.
I wanted to do a little poll to see what WHT users like better. Would you prefer MobileME or a WebHost? Could you also if you have the time provide a reasoning.

Current VPS and webhost nameservers
ns1.domain1.com
ns2.domain2.com
New VPS nameservers
ns1.domain2.com
ns2.domain2.com
Now how can I move all the accounts but dont change the nameservers? I mean is it possible to have two different domain name servers pointing to each other?
Not sure if it makes sense but hopefully some expert guy will get to the bottom of it
I have an application written in ASP.NET 2.0 with MySQL as back-end that I would like to host. I am looking for a host who support ASP.NET with MySQL. Can anyone help me find a good host?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm getting ready to upgrade my site to Joomla and am learning all these things about security issues. For example, the register globals on my webserver is turned on and I can't turn it off unless I go to a dedicated server and pay 3X per month of what I'm paying now. And there's other things too about this particular webhost.
Just wondering if anyone can give any input from experience on who is a good webhost for a Joomla site with regards to security, etc.
When I was trying to figure out who to register with I looked at the following things. I believe all of these are very important to making your website as successful as possible. Support and uptime are the most important to me without these your site will be down alot and take longer to bring back when a problem occurs. The amount of space and plan though is really on a case to case basis.
* Price
* Performance
* Reliability
* Customer Support
* Control Panel
* User Feedback
* Website Design
Now I ask you.

What do you look for in a good webhost?
Does anyone know of a good web host that allows adult content? No porn or anything hardcore, basically it's just half-nude/topless/erotic posing pictures.
I will definitely need a web host that allows a lot of bandwidth, I'm actually doing this for someone who just got in the cover of Penthouse. So.. I'm sure there will be a lot of traffic.
I plan to host a small multimedia site.
I am looking for a new webhost. I want a webhost that:
1. Costs less than $10 a month
2. Allows file hosting. (Video streaming/downloading)
3. Ideally allows for storage of files that are not related to the website.
4. Ideally allows for anonymous FTP access.
Only 1 and 2 are critical. The site will have many MP3s, Videos, PDF and text documents available for streaming or downloading. All the material will either be my own or the copywrited material of my organization. I have their express written permission to host and distribute these media files under a creative commons license. It will be 5GB or less of files, and they will be downloaded rarely and not very many people simultaneously downloading at once.
Most webhosts I have looked at (Monsterhost, 1and1, Bluehost, mmhosting.com, etc) All offer unlimited/tons of space and have some provision in their terms of service agreement like this: "Webhost company does not allow file sharing / unlimited media sharing." or "HostMonster.Com offers its Services to host web sites, not to store data. Using an account as an online storage space for archiving electronic files is prohibited and will result in termination of hosting services without prior notice."
So where can I find a host that allows file hosting, video hosting, etc? I don't need a lot of bandwidth/storage space, but I do want to host my media.
I hope I posted on the right section..
I have setup ISPconfig on a VPS (that was given to me for free)..
I have one dedicated IP, and I used a .co.cc domain to access my server..
now, my question is, how do I setup name server? what name server should I use to point the domains that I will host on my server?
how to host a website on a windows vps? like mysql, php, ftp, control panel, etc..

I'm just wanting some feedback in response to what I feel is gross neglegence of a Webhost I used. I have a website thru this company, WebsitePros. They seemed great for someone like myself, a retail business owner/operator w/ no eployees. I pay 1 company to host, market, and provide software for me to build & manage my site & store. My site had an ecommerce store which was mistakenly deleted by someone at their company. They lost all my pics, product descriptions, customer info, etc, from 2 years of business. They have no backups at all for the store (i had to login to my account to manage store using thier software-- no ability to backup the info on my computer). I was told by their supervisor that traditional webhosts like WebsitePros don't backup store files, just the site itself, and that they would only be willing to help rebuild but offer no monetary compensation (oh yeah, and 3months at 1/2 price...sweet). This isn't a case of failure to pay a bill or anything along those lines---they admit total liability.
My questions are:
1) Is it not the webhost's responsibility to backup these "store" files?
2) Do I seem unreasonable in asking for damages since they lost all this info, including 100's of customer profiles & outstanding orders?
3) Heard of precedents here? Right compensation?
I'm setting up a small webshop.
Selling more to vintage bike parts and appreals.
I'm base in Singapore. Most of my customers from US and UK.
I need a reliable trustworthy webhost that can make my site payment methods by Enets which i dont really understand their policy and paypal (which i know that almost all virtual webhost do support) .
I had been doing a nice host hunting and here are too many webhost offers that are "too good to be true".
I use Oracle SQL Developer and Oracle 10g with ColdFusion MX7.
Does anyone know of a webhost that can handle the above?
I actually really have'nt found what I've been looking for. What I need is a shared webhost in Europe. What I need is:
- 5 GB disk storage
- Some traffic (not really that much)
- Up to 10-15 add-on domains (accessing different folders)
- Up to 30 MySQL databases
- Subdomains (accessing different folders)
- 10 FTP-users who can access folders across the usernames
- PHP
- ImageMagick
- PHP memory limit not lower than 32 MB (to support TYPO3)
- SFTP support
- SSH/Shell if possible
I'm currently with DreamHost and Servage.net. DreamHost is actually OK (even though they seem to be overselling) - but I would like to move my sites closer to home (Denmark). Servage.NET I can't recommend, as their MySQL perfomance (or whatever) is horrible on the first request to my websites.
So basically what I wan't is specs more or less like DreamHost - but without the very high amount of disk-space and transfer.
I've been looking at some UK-based hosts - but most of the fails on either the domains or MySQL databases. However - I have'nt been able to figure out how many domains you can host on floppynet.co.uk?
Budget is apx. 10 euros a month.
This is just a little pet project I'm thinking about, so nothing excessive, I was thinking:
php+mysql
around 50 gb transfer
no heavy HD requirement here, 500 megs?
allows adult content, duh.
Anyone have a recommendation?
I need a webhost (Linux preferably) with some fairly specific FTP account requirements.
I am going to need to be able to create an FTP account that multiple users can log on at once and they can upload files but NOT overwrite files of the same name. Can this be done? Anyone know of a host with these options?
This is for a program I'm working on where users make images and they upload them to the web. I don't want to use HTTP uploading because I don't know how to script it when FTP is easier for me. I wouldn't want people to learn the filenames of images and upload images with the exact same name to delete people's files.
I have recently been looking over Webhost Websites seeking errors, I will admit I have come across a couple at HawkHost (not trying to make a fool of them), Just pointing errors out.
@ Their SLA - [url] - You will see that they have:
Quote:
Your must include the service type, primary domain, contact information, and a full description of the service interruption including logs if applicable.
Where 'Your' should be 'You'
Also at their [url]- Page the link to SLA lead to /policy/sla instead of /legal/sla.
I have submitted these errors, But this is besides the point of the thread, I am work curious to 'Does it Deter You' from purchasing from a Webhost with errors?
